How the Old Horse Won the Bet offers a playful take on the excitement of a horse race, while The Broomstick Train provides a charmingly spooky explanation of how an electric tram operates, perfect for the Halloween spirit. Join narrator Laurie Anne Walden as she brings these enchanting verses to life!
